I am a bit lost. How is cryptography about secrecy of the text through some operation, like a function, while at the same time being a system that defines itself? Cryptography has …

Well, 'they' allowed door locks to be easily broken by anyone with minuscule knowledge in lockpicking because that is the type of locks 'they' like on doors. It's going to be no di…
